Air strikes? The Department of Defense.

Strikes, as in labor strikes? No government department is responsible for these, although the Department of Labor can have some influence over them. But the strikes themselves are the responsibility of the unions involved, and the businesses.

there was a great diversity of skill and cultures in the labor force, so there was little bargaining power to be won by unions.

The Australian Defence Force Assessment Day

The second step of the process, the Assessment Day, is a long process. It consists of a medical examination by a doctor, a psychological interview and a formal interview with a defence interviewer.

This day is a crucial step in the process. You must ensure that you convey your enthusiasm and maturity. Take it very seriously but try not to be nervous at the same time. You must sell yourself for that job and convince the psyche and the Defence Interviewer that you are worthy of it. This being said your attire should be formal, most people wear a suit, however formal black pants, long sleeved shirt, tie, and black shoes are essential. Try and be confident, keep eye contact, keep a good posture, socialise with the other candidates in the waiting room and SMILE :D

In the medical examination you will be given a hearing, sight and various other tests. You will be required to remove your clothes and do a series of push ups and sit ups, do not worry this IS NOT your fitness test. They will also ask you questions about your medical history and examine your genital region.

The psychological examination is there to make sure they aren't employing any crazies. They will bombard you with questions and ask your opinions on things. Be honest, to an extent, don't lie but at the same time you should omit details which you know are going to compromise your enlistment (for example you felt like killing yourself once). You must convince them that you want the job and must show your enthusiasm.

Now in regards to the Defence Interview, this is the whole kitten caboodle, at the end of it you will be told if you are recommended or not recommended, if rejected you will be told why. You must research EVERYTHING about your job, why you want it, why you want the force you're applying for, where is the basic training, where is the Initial Employment Training, salary and allowances. You must also have a general understanding of what service life is like, how this will affect you, negative and positive personal attributes. The defence interviewer will bombard you with questions, some of them difficult to answer, for example morality questions. He may seem to drill you, but that is his job, to make sure you want the job. At the end of the day it's up to your determination, this part is probably one of the easiest of your military life and they want to know you have the determination to succeed. READ EVERYTHING that is on your job and on your specific service. Once you are done reading it, read it again, until you've memorized everything.

It is also a good idea to know information about your service for example their deployments, bases and equipment. EVERYTHING that is relevant to you must be learnt. Even know about the Pre Enlistment Fittness Assessment. Read everything you can get your hands on.

Good Luck

Hi, Well, companies will almost always oppose union representation for it's workers. It's the workers that usually seek union representation. Usually for several reasons including; better wages, better working conditions, having a grievance process, etc. If you have a business owner or boss that disrespects you, it's nice to have the union to go to and file a grievance. Then the union rep brings the problem to the attention of "management" to have it resolved without the worker feeling intimidated or having their job threatened. My experience with unions was in the trucking industry. The companies that weren't unionized treated their workers very well and paid good (union) wages. So you see, just the thought (or threat) of the workers voting in the union can keep a company from taking advantage of it's workers. Keep in mind that unions can be a two edged sword though. I had a friend that worked at a machine shop and before the union was voted in the wages were good and the working conditions were good. It was a very laid back place where if you stretched your coffee break or lunch a few minutes or stopped to talk to a co-worker on the way back from the restroom nobody cared. Well, somebody got the bright idea that if the guys voted in the union, maybe they could negotiate a better wage, etc. First of all the owner was heartbroken that "his guys" would do that to him and secondly and more importantly, the place became a prison. A 10 minute break was a 10 minute break!! Etc. Etc. You get the idea. Long story short. Ask yourself and your co-workers if you "need" union representation. Do you get a fair wage? Are working conditions OK? Are you forced to work overtime? Etc. Good luck and God Bless Hi I think that you have to look at the history of trade unions and the reasons they came into being. You have to remember that anything you are given as an employee comes out of company profits, or more importantly stockholder profits. So do you think a company wants to give you Veterans Day or Presidents Day off an pay you for it? No, of course not. A factory owner would like you working fourteen hours a day, 6 days a week, with only Christmas day off. No such thing as overtime at time and a half. And you either took the job at the rate you were told you would be paid (which of course was as little as possible) or you looked elsewhere. These conditions sound extreme, yet in 1900 these were very much conditions for working men in America and Europe. So in order to get better conditions, groups of men all doing the same work, like weavers or steampipe fitters decided that they could only get a better deal if they formed a Guild (later a union) and went to the employers to negotiate better conditions for all of them, or they would stop working. This was the only power they had...they were skilled craftsmen and if they stopped working the factory owners couldn't suddenly pull 500 steamfitters out of their bung holes. So, they negotiated with the guilds, maybe an extra dollar a week, maybe 12 hour days instead of 14, maybe a paid day off for thanksgiving. The problem for a union is that there are many unskilled positions that, if everyone walked off the job, the employer could replace the entire workforce and train them up within a week. This is why unions at McDonalds or Wal-Mart are not as strong as the Airline Pilots Union. But the real battles between unions and owners were in the first half of the 20th century when massive groups like auto workers tried to organize. They would strike and go on a picket line, and the owners, most noticeably Henry Ford who detested the idea that his workers might hold any power over him, bought in armed thugs to break up the picket lines, clubbing and shooting men, women and children, and starving the strikers back to work. By persevering and dying on the picket lines, ordinary men and women like those at Ford's Dearborn plant have won by their blood all the things you take for granted at work now. The 8-hour day did not become standard until the 1950s. The 5-day week in the 60s. The paid vacation days, the maternity leave pay, health insurance, even things like OSHA, who annoy bosses by making them spend money to stop you from falling into a blast furnace, are a direct result of unions fighting the power of management. If you have a strong stomach you might read Upton Sinclair's The Jungle, which describes American workplaces before OSHA or the FDA. I warn you though, there are some VERY strong scenes in this book. You could also do a search on the Dearborn strike.
